Servings: 1 cup
Ingredients
- 1 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1½ tsp sea salt
- ¾ tsp whole mustard seed
- ¾ tsp whole coriander seed
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ¼ tsp celery seed
- ¾ lb. jalapenos
Instructions
- Wearing gloves, wash and dry the jalapenos. Cut the stems off and slice into ¼” thick rounds.
- In a medium pot, combine the vinegar, sugar, and all the spices. Heat over medium, stirring until all the sugar is dissolved.
- Add the sliced jalapenos and return to the heat, cooking for 12-15 minutes until the jalapenos are soft and have started to absorb the sugar.
- Strain the jalapenos into the prepared, clean glass jar using a slotted spoon, leaving the liquid in the pot. With a fine mesh strainer, remove most of seasonings if desired.
- Return the liquid to medium heat. Cook for a further 7-10 minutes at a boil until the liquid has reduced by half and is a very thick syrup.
- Pour the syrup over the jalapenos and place the lid on. Allow to cool before eating. Store in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
